But you can't stop a man from cutting it all down! So I'm at the farm I've been clearing pasture at, and various other wooding acivities. They have 4 dead/dying trees, near road and powerlines. Ive knocked a few down out back, but yesterday I took a few pics. This tree absolutely shattered on impact. I got my equipment ready for the takedown yesterday, thinking I'd do it today. But I had a young energetic man who wanted to help, and see it come down. So we did. As an aside ive been cutting a bit here and there since I left home in January, cutting with and for others. Ive watched too many cringe-worthy fellings with bucket loaders and more. Yesterday's work.... A maple, prolly 40' tall. Roped and felled. Bits and pieces everywhere!
